Nneoma Nkechi Okorocha made this call when the National
executives of the Women Wing of the Christian Association of Nigeria (WOWICAN)
paid her a courtesy visit at the government house, Owerri
She urged Nigerian women to brace up for action in nation
building to be voice of the voiceless and help of the helpless in the
transformation of the country
The Imo first lady expressed her delight for the choice of
Imo State for the celebration of the 20th National Convention of the
WOWICAN adding that every programme in the State is anchored on God as
expressed in Imo Anthem which she said has empowered the administration to make
giant strides
Speaking at the occasion, the National President of WOWICAN,
Mrs. Marbel Sowoolu said the WOWICAN is an association of Christian Women in
Nigeria which aims at addressing important issues affecting women, youth and
children in Nigeria
Mrs. Mabel Sowoolu went as far as saying that their
association also propagates evangelism in which women not only impart knowledge
of God in their children but also live it out by being exemplary
She poured encomium on the wife of the Imo governor for
touching the lives of widows in the State through the She Needs A Roof
Programme (SNARP), the feeding of the downtrodden through the Nneoma Kitchen
and the activities of the 2013 August meeting which have sent Stress in women
into oblivion in the State
She said they will not rest on their oars and assured to
carry on their roles as mothers to assist in moving the nation forward, by
taking care of the less priviledge in society and most importantly now by
appealing to the appropriate quarters to call off the strike that has hindered
academic works in Nigerian Universities for months
